I think for the "design a room" challenge they should do one where each queen makes their own dragcon booth. That way it is still a design aesthetic challenge but it's also promotional sort of like the dragcon panel challenges.
I’ve never understood why we haven’t had something more drag con related other than the whole proportionizing challenge. Which could even be good if redone. But booths makes the most sense!
How about good challenges we need to see again as well? The sewing challenge on Canada Season 3 where everyone was given the same materials was fantastic and I would love to see this regularly
I wish the all winners season had a goldeb girls acting challenge. Imagine how hard Jinkx, Rajah, Viv and monet would slay. And trinity would look the part lmao.
Not gonna lie, I loved Honey, I Shrunk the Kids when I was little, so that challenge resonated with me. Probably in the minority, but I would vote to have a "Honey, We Blew Up The Drag Queen" as a sequel, and ask Rick Moranis to be a guest judge. I'd eat it up.
I'd love to see the Gaff in 2.0. Have a drag icon as the guest like Lady Bunny or Coco Peru, and maybe lean a bit more into the impersonation and joke telling.
Kind of ironic that Ru messed up the Disco Sucks thing so badly considering she often criticised queens (and queens born in the 90s) for not knowing every little disco reference that's made on the show in general.
Ok I've solved the Porkchop Loading Dock. Make it the space where the queens go after they are eliminated in the usual way from a season. THEN you keep them all the entire season to film a behind the scenes Big Brother type show where the eliminated performers are all just trying to not kill each other to wait it out til the penultimate episode of the season they were eliminated from where they have a big contest and the winner from the PLD gets to go to the actual season finale. And then you run the footage of it as a separate supplemental show, like Untucked. And of course, it will be hosted by Porkchop!
Haven’t finished watching the video, but what immediately comes to mind is the season 10 good twin bad twin challenge. To fix it the good twins should have come in to encourage the queen to overcome their fears instead of having the bad twin come in to tear them down. It was a really bad challenge and miss cracker went home ☹️
I also feel like they could do a queer eye acting challenge. Maybe have it be a mockumentary style like sex in the kitty girl from as4. But you know... Good
Another failed challenge, in my opinion, is the wedding make over from season 6. The thing that could be redone is that instead of giving one partner a make over, both partners should get it. Not like a couple by one queen, but each person by each queen. It would also make a lot of good drama especially if one partner is in the top and the other in the bottom.
I would LOVE a super campy Rope themed acting challenge, maybe with a little hint of Clue. (The Hitchcock film Rope, not a random acting challenge about bondage) Oooo or La Cage aux Folles/The Birdcage, but one parent is a Drag King instead of Drag Queen.
I'll probably have a million separate comments so sorry in advance. The Disco-mentary challenge always confused me, because the final disco sucks portion should have been a hair metal number. It's obvious!
i'm just gonna say i'm glad mera brought up the disco challenge cause that's new information to me. entertaining AND educational AND looking fierce as always!
This challenge wasn’t a flop, but I am DYING to see a challenge similar to the dance challenge that Alyssa won on Season 5. There’s so many things you can do with that general concept of a sort of dance performance moment.
I feel like the Porkchop Loading Dock would have worked if they were told beforehand they weren’t getting eliminated. Pair them up for let’s say a photoshoot mini challenge and have them choose the pairs. They would lip sync but instead of getting “eliminated” after losing the lip sync, they come back on a different episode. It wouldn’t feel malicious and we wouldn’t have to watch queens have their hopes and dreams crushed
The challenge that definitelly needs a redo is the girl group from Espana season 3. Like, the idea of doing a Eurovision inspired challenge is cute, so I wish it could've been more like the one from UK2. Instead of completely recreating the number, the girls should've wrote their own lyrics and choreo.
I wish they had done something similar to what they did on Rock of Love: Charm School with SheMZ bit. Like fake PSA videos or something portraying a scandalous made up celebrity character based on the likes of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, and that whole era.
On acting, also hire real directors. Look at AS7. Let's not pretend the acting challenge was well written. But the end result was great and it was so constructive to have the queens work with an actual director and get experience for something they could very likely do after the show.
One that came to mind when you were talking about the wrong format is Pharmarusical. Why on earth was that a rusical. That concept could have worked as a commercial challenge though. I'm picturing like Katya and Alyssa's commercials in the AS2 shark tank episode.
I feel like the porkchop loading dock could work as a Season long twist where after the queens are eliminated, they are brought back to the Porkchop Loading Dock and are paired with an early out from a previous season, and there's a challenge around the top 6-ish where it's just the eliminated queens and they do a comedy skit or makeover with the early out from a previous season and whoever wins gets to come back into the competition and maybe the early out that's on the winning team gets a guarantied spot on the next All Stars or something
Looking at this video, there seems to be a pattern forming with failed challenges. The challenge itself is either too simple or too specific. For example, I loved the CDR3 dance challenge but I can acknowledge that it was just too simple tbh. On Season 2, the memoir challenge was fine but I liked that Mera pointed out that they could have not done a specific genre of book and let the queens' creativity shine. It was too specific. Also, I noticed that a lot of the challenges listed are improv/acting challenges👀 just saying.
Here’s how I would fix the pork chop twist. 1. Instead of each queen walking in to the workroom, it would be them walking in behind the lip sync assassin screen. Then a montage and interview of them (possibly pulling things from their audition and promo shoot) kind of like a video game. Make it more like a casting special. 2. Have stakes. The winners get their own “premiere” with no elimination, but the losers actually have an elimination. 3. Don’t have the queens meet the others until all of the winners can meet and all of the losers can meet.
28:35 I think Scarlett is thinking about the acting challenge is Spain S3. Those were based on Spanish horror films, that are jewels of horror cinema and modern classics.
3:20 - this is one of my favourite topics of all times! I've even written a whole musicall called (in english) Disco On Fire, which is all about Disco Demolition Night, and it was sooo much fun, but also touched on so many subjects, like intolerance and prejudice. I'm about to redo this musicall cause it's too good of a theme
when the people were collecting records before the entry before that infamous baseball game some have noticed that people are giving up records with black artists that are not doing Disco music, so this whole event was equally homophobic and racists.
Shakesqueer really bummed me out. It originally involved drag & he was quite possibly gay. It could've been so cool. Maybe if they'd just focussed on on the female characters in a documentary style? This might be a deep cut, but I'd like an' Inspired by Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz & Guildenstern' The Shakespeare play inspired by two ancillary characters from Hamlet, but based on all the Queer/coded side characters in Movies that had no real story. (I don't know why, but Hollywood in Mannequin springs to mind) It good be a cool way of talking about how negatively caricatured gays, queers & queens have been, giving them back stories. But maybe thats way too much for a Ru Paul Challenge.
How to fix (or at least slightly improve) the pork chop loading dock: Have the winners do a WINNERS premiere (Top 2, no elimination), and have the pork chop queens do a LOSERS premiere (Bottom 2, someone eliminated). This at least gives stakes, and winning the lip sync and voting Elliott into the winners group both actually mean something.
Couldn’t agree more on the Disco Sucks. Being in the UK I’d never heard about this moment in history before and researched it a little prompted by te episode as I was a bit confused about it by how it was covered and was only further confused by its representation on the show in context to what I was discovering which was something very serious and pretty dark and not at all frivolous
I feel like the porkchop episode could be saved, they could do a split premiere with 6/7 drag quens per group and doing a lip sync lalaparuza, not to being eliminated but to win the challenge so every time there is a lip sync the looser of that lip sync is safe and the winner goes to the next stage to win the cash price
The Laugh in Door thing originally wasn't funny either. BUT it was because they all couldn't keep a straight face and screwed up the lines, so it was a train wreck funny thing. Laugh in was weird anyway LOL Shakesqueer has so much potential. The pork chop lounge, should stay dead and burried.
Philippines , the beauty pageant episode. The queens absolutely didn’t understand what the challenge was, improv, choreo with that scary director, character acting. It was too much. Making it a pageant rusical is the only way I could imagine fixing it.
@@jakeloucks2377 agreed. Someone being “celebrity” or “well-established” doesn’t mean you’re above me and can be degrading, condescending, and disrespectful.
Btw on the Ruets challenge from Canada S3, imo if the songs were better, it'd probably be a great challenge. There are amazing Duet songs for drag queens to perform.
I would like to see the Makeover Challenge get an overhaul where they’re more clear with the objective and with the judging. What are you looking for specifically? A clear family resemblance of the queen and their partner, or for the queen and said partner to just have matching outfits?
What about a challenge where groups of 2 or 3 have to come up with an original drag podcast show idea similar to your own and others that are out there. They would be tasked to come up with fictional or actual events, perspectives, drag news, etc from an agreed upon region of the country, such as the South, New York, Midwest, wherever. The Pink Table talk episode comes to mind here but unlike that one, this bit would be more of a casual setting and the level of comedy or seriousness would also have to be agreed upon in the writing and preparation of the sketch which would include improv, of course. 3 or 4 minute limit.
I think the best way to do the "pork chop loading dock" is to not actually eliminate the queens, but have them each lip sync against a lip sync assassin.
I think the acting challenges need a revamp. There should be at least one try of something more serious/dramatic because there are a lot of queens who go on to do that. Re-doing Shakesqueer could basically be Drag the Musical. Not a redo but they should also gave to come up with the concept for a podcast, in pairs, and producer a teaser episode.
I think the Porkchop Loading Dock could have worked if they had just made it a lipsync tournament with the winner of the lipsync getting moved up the next round and the overall winner getting a cashtip, i feel like it might have been a win win with production getting to know which queens were good lip syncers and which ones weren't (cause let be real that the point of it) and also help get to know the queens abit more then watching what i consider one of the worst episodes of the franchise
Oh shoot, I didn't submit my example on time, sorry! Can we just re-do the whole edit for DR Mexico S1? The cast is so talented, and those edit choices for mini/main challenges, werk room conversations, even the lip syncs; are simply not fair to the queens 🙏
I was around when they had that Disco suck record burning moment --- while over all there are some really good tunes back then but really -- 'Disco Duck' --- that's went it went to the bad place.
the cheerleading challenge in season 9 was too much and didn't work. I could see a cheer leading battle where two groups of cheerleaders just bounce around a bit with pompoms and read each other.
I feel like if production would plan the season more around the queens they cast, instead of how they want the season to go. It would be less riggory and fails, and more success stories and redemption, And just overall a better season.
I wish on acting challenge the queen who wins the mini challenge gets to be the director,she chooses a writer to come up with the script,and then give her feedback about how the gurls performed
We absolutely need an updated Shakespeare challenge because he would've *loved* Drag Race. Shakespeare is credited with coming up with the word "drag" in this way. Also, Shakespeare's plays are loaded with dirty jokes and fun word play. He wrote plays that would appeal to both the monarchy/upperclass and the uneducated, poorest members of society. It's sad that Shakespeare is known as this pretentious, inaccessible, boring author because his shows are full of personality. With some updated language, it would be perfect for Drag Race.
Porkchop Loading Dock should be an All Stars twist like the mirror in AS2 or the lip sync challenge in AS6.
It would suit so much better because we already know the queens on AS. It would also create better storylines moving forward.
I think for the "design a room" challenge they should do one where each queen makes their own dragcon booth. That way it is still a design aesthetic challenge but it's also promotional sort of like the dragcon panel challenges.
That’s such a good idea! Ultimate branding
I’ve never understood why we haven’t had something more drag con related other than the whole proportionizing challenge. Which could even be good if redone. But booths makes the most sense!
Didn’t they basically do this on season 10 or am I misremembering
@@collinkilloran5721 they did dragcon panels. I wanna see them set up a personal booth. Maybe they could design a tshirt and a pin to go with it.
If it’s done later on in the season when there aren’t too many queens then it’s totally doable (meaning the personal drag con booths idea lol)
How about good challenges we need to see again as well? The sewing challenge on Canada Season 3 where everyone was given the same materials was fantastic and I would love to see this regularly
THIS EXACTLY. Giving them all the same thing and seeing the taste level and design capabilities of what they can come up with
the despy awards!
Or that amazing styling challenge near the end of UK3
The season 15 fashion show one too needs to come back
Love that

Another reference they could do is But I'm a Cheerleader. Especially since Ru is in it.

I'd love a Rocky Horror acting challenge, but don't see how they could PARODY it as it's a parody itself

So the game within a game? But with surveillance
Idk that sounds costly
If they do a different Golden Girls challenge, I hope they save that for an All Stars, if not All Winners
Thanks for your analysis of the disco era. I lived through it. I’m tired of it being whitewashed. I’m a fan of your channel👍🏿
They made that challenge farrrrrr too trivial
Haven’t finished watching the video, but what immediately comes to mind is the season 10 good twin bad twin challenge. To fix it the good twins should have come in to encourage the queen to overcome their fears instead of having the bad twin come in to tear them down.

They should do a queer eye themed challenge at top 5 one season instead of the makeover challenge!! That could be so fun 🤩
This is such a good idea!
I also feel like they could do a queer eye acting challenge. Maybe have it be a mockumentary style like sex in the kitty girl from as4. But you know... Good
omg your mind... now i want the fab 5 to be made over or to AT LEAST see jvn on the judging panel, i would live!

I wish they had done something similar to what they did on Rock of Love: Charm School with SheMZ bit. Like fake PSA videos or something portraying a scandalous made up celebrity character based on the likes of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, and that whole era.
I think the hotel/club branding one could also be done with a cruise. Like come up with a themed cruise and ideas for entertainment.
28:28 I need to know what Scarlett was talking about here. 😅
At first I thought, is she mixing up Dragula with Drag Race???
I believe she is thinking of the Halloween party challenge in Dragula, where they all re imagined classic Halloween costumes..maybe???

I guess the Porkchop Loading Dock re-do has been done: the Lip Sync LaLaPaRuZa Smackdown 🥳🥳🥳

It's sad that Shakespeare is known as this pretentious, inaccessible, boring author because his shows are full of personality. With some updated language, it would be perfect for Drag Race.
